Tags make it possible to run the same set of Transfers for multiple companies without any duplication. The key is understanding how three things connect: Tag Values, Schedules, and the resulting named Schedule that gets created.
The Tag Values table is where you define what each Tag resolves to for each company. Each row represents one company, and each column is a Tag — such as the connection, currency, or link storage reference.
In the example below, two companies are configured:
When a Transfer runs for Cronus DK, every Tag in that Transfer - %%CONN%, %%COMP%, %%CURR%, %%LSCUST%, etc. - is automatically replaced with the values from that row.
When setting up a Schedule, the Select Tags dropdown lists one entry per row in your Tag Values table. Simply select the company you want this Schedule to run for ( for example COMPANY - NAVODATA001: Cronus DK.) This tells the Schedule which set of Tag Values to use every time it fires.
Once saved, the Schedule is automatically given a name that reflects exactly what it does : for example G_CUST_NAVODATA001_CRONUS_DK. The name is derived from the Tag Values, so it is always clear which Transfer group is running, against which connection, and for which company.
